Class Experience

Class Format:
Teacher/Audible will read 2 chapters a day, and the students will read 1 chapter for homework.  Each day, students need to come to class with materials.  It is very important for the child to have supplies so they can fully enjoy the class! 

Day 1: Read aloud chapter 1 and 2.
Day 2: Read aloud chapters 4 and 5.
Day 3: Read aloud chapters 7 and 8.
Day 4: Read aloud chapter 10.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I am a Professional Artist and a Texas and Utah certified teacher in general education EC-6th grade, ESL and Special Ed EC-12th grade.  I homeschooled my children with great success.  I have taught ELA as well as math/science.  My favorite subject is science! I love it!!!! I am a strong phonics, reading, and writing teacher.  I love to make learning fun, and I am so excited to meet you in one of my classes!!  

I enjoy the outdoors as much as I can! I enjoy fishing, hunting, and hiking.  On my days off, you can usually find me somewhere in the mountains exploring.  I love practicing archery with my family every week.  Photography is also one of my hobbies.

                                                               Semester Courses
I teach semester-long courses in writing from first grade to high school.  Literature classes are also on my semester calendar which will include books such as Romeo & Juliet, 1984, To Kill a Mockingbird, Fahrenheit 451, The Great Gatsby and so many more. I teach reading classes for beginners and those who struggle! Strong focus on sight words, phonics, and comprehension.

                                                                      Book Clubs
 I also schedule book clubs all year long.  This allows children worldwide to discuss their viewpoints and ideas on books we read together.  I have a ton of book clubs on the Wings of Fire series, Percy Jackson series, The Hobbit, and hundreds of other books.  

                                                                    Summer Camps
Summer camps are held M- Th in the morning hours MST.

Students will enjoy the Magic Treehouse and Merlin Missions series and week-long crafts created using details from what they read.  

Writing
Two-week writing camps will be offered.

Early reading classes, middle school and high school literature classes, and book clubs will also be offered all summer long!
